- Another town along the Canal des Deux-Mers: Grisolles. We come here for a green stopover, to eat well and rest. Grisolles is known for the invention and production, let's say on an industrial level, of the sorghum broom (the classic yellow straw broom). Until 1998, for more than a century, 40 factories produced this type of broom, making the city one of the main industrial centers of the department! Visit the Calbet Museum in Grisolles, in a beautiful house typical of the village, for a trip back in time. Also visit the 13th century Saint-Martin church.
